Probability analysis of vertical drainage improvement for soft soil settlement prediction via a Bayesian back analysis framework and the simplified Hypothesis B method
), Abstract
The time-dependent settlement of soft soils is one of the key problems in geotechnical engineering. Using Bayesian back analysis, this study examined the probability of settlement of the Ballina embankment in Australia. As random variables, the primary compression index (
